About this river

Steinhatchee River

The Steinhatchee River is a 35-mile long river in northern Florida, draining into the Gulf of Mexico. It has a long history of use by Native Americans and early settlers for fishing and transportation. The river is fed by several springs and runs through extensive wetlands. There are no major reservoirs or dams on the river, but it does have a small weir used to control water levels for irrigation. The river is popular for recreational activities such as fishing, kayaking, and boating. The surrounding land is primarily used for agriculture, with timber and seafood production also prominent. The river is home to a variety of fish species, including redfish and trout, and is considered a prime spot for fishing.
